Chapter 1885 Amuro Toru: The courage this song gives

 Haibara Ai was worried about being caught by the broadcast camera and was not in the player seats. She handed over the team leadership task to Nakatani. She wore a promotional hat for the e-sports competition and sneaked into the auditorium where acquaintances were. After hearing the singing, she reluctantly

She couldn't help but turn her head to look at Chi Feichi, who was sitting next to her. She suddenly noticed that there was a dangerous sight in the dimness that made her uneasy. She immediately turned around and looked over, but she could only see the shadow illuminated by the projection in the dimness.

A group of people with faint blue silhouettes.

In the darkness, Belmod looked away, with a hint of a faint smile on his lips.

Shirley seems to be living a very comfortable life every day. It would be a waste of opportunity not to scare her.

But Chika Suzu’s new song should also be Lark’s masterpiece, right?

She was still looking forward to it.

This trip was indeed not in vain.

"Because..."

(because)

“When the sun shines we shine together.

(When the sun shines, we shine together)

"Told you I'll be here forever."

(I said I would keep waiting)

"Said I'll always be your friend."

(Said I will always be friends)

"Took an oath that I'm stick it out till the end."

(I swore an oath that I would persevere until the end of the world)

During the ethereal female voice, people in the audience looked at each other.

Chi Feichi found that the children of the Youth Detective Team, including Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko, all looked at each other and smiled. They were not surprised and quietly listened to Chika Suzu's singing to identify whether there were any mistakes.

Most of the people who come to watch this kind of competition are young people hanging out with their friends. The lyrics sung in a soothing rhythm should be very touching.

This song will probably become the signature song of the Umbrella eSports League in the future, and it may also become the signature song that confuses the world after the new Umbrella is formed...

"Now that it's raining more than ever."

(It's raining heavily now)

"Know that we still have each other."

(Fortunately we still have each other)

"You can stand under my umbrella."

(You can stand under my umbrella to hide from the rain)

"You can stand under my umbrella."

(You can stand under my umbrella to hide from the rain)

"Ella ella eh eh eh..."

The rhythm of the accompaniment intensified, and the current light from the surrounding projection circuit boards also gradually intensified, reflecting a huge blue and white umbrella pattern in the sky.

"Under my umbrella."

"Ella ella eh eh eh..."

The lyrics repeatedly strengthened the presence of the word 'umbrella'. With the enhanced rhythm and electronic music, it didn't sound boring, and the title of the song popped up in the minds of the people in the audience -

Umbrella!

The leisurely singing of the ethereal female voice continues.

'Nothing can come between us. Only with you can I be complete. Only with you can the world exist. The world keeps moving, and sometimes it doesn't go as you want. Even if it can't be changed, together we can heal the trauma, because when the sun shines,

We shine together, I said I will always wait, I said I will always be friends...'

In the auditorium near the back row, Toru Amuro still wore a baseball cap on his head, listening to the song quietly, with a face that was difficult to distinguish between joy and sorrow. In the shadow where no one could see, his eyes softened little by little.

This is probably a song written by a consultant.

Among the consultant's songs, he never gets tired of listening to the popular ones, and he also likes to listen to the unpopular ones over and over again.

But there was one song that he never dared to listen to again after hearing it once.

It's the song of the same name inspired by the Beatles song "Let it be", the song that says "Let's become adults, heroes of justice".

It was the first time he heard that song, and as he listened to the consultant sing it word by word in a gentle voice, the grief and unwillingness of his friends who died in the line of duty would settle in his heart, and the happy memories they had experienced together became a pain in his heart.

Knife, at a certain moment, he seemed to see himself standing alone in the bright spring light, reaching out to catch the falling cherry blossom petals. The feeling of sadness that he had to feel relieved made him really unwilling to listen to that song again.

Song.

The reason why he didn't want to listen was not that he couldn't bear the sadness in it, but that he was worried that he would get addicted to that song and delay the work at hand.

Yes, the person who has passed away has passed away, and he will continue to go on and complete those dreams he once had. This is probably what the consultant understands as "Let it be".

He also thought about a question: How did the consultant create this song?

During the background check, it was clear that the consultant had no friends and had been alone for several years.

Is it...possible that he is a friend that no one notices?

I heard that before the incident in Ireland, the consultant was listening to the Beatles' "Let it be" over and over again at the crime scene and in the Metropolitan Police Department. Perhaps very early on, the consultant also had such a group of friends.

Like him, he could only smile helplessly and wave his friend away.

He even gradually began to believe in this guess.

Not only because the lyrics that hurt him came from a consultant, but also because of the emotion conveyed in the songs.

He had also heard the version sung by another person once. It was also full of regrets about friendship and a little bit of relief, but there was no sadness conveyed by the consultant - an emotion of separation between life and death.

The only thing he didn't understand was the part 'I am the bad guy, I am the one who escaped, I didn't lie, I was the real liar'.

If the consultant cannot forget the death of his former friend, he should accuse the other party of being a liar in this paragraph, just as he has complained countless times in his heart that his former friends did not abide by the agreement to stay together and are a group of big liars. In other words, the consultant

He is a liar, but it seems like... he is the one who dies.

He also speculated whether the consultant's "escape" meant retreating from danger, or whether he was unwilling to face the death of his friend.

It can't be because the consultant died, right? The consultant is still alive and well.

If he could figure out the story hidden in this song, the story that belonged to the counselor and his friend, he might be able to understand the root cause of the counselor's depression and mental disorder and help solve the problem.

This song has such magic, even if he only dares to listen to it once, because he understands the mood, he can't help but think about it. Even if he doesn't think about the mood and thoughts of the creator, he will probably think about other things.

The song he heard today made his heart gradually calm down. The happy memories with his friends no longer seemed like knives. The past flowed through his mind bit by bit, which only made him feel warm and peaceful, and also made him feel happy.

I was thinking whether I should listen to that song "Let it be" a few more times, and maybe listen to the Beatles' "Let it be" a few more times.

When he understands the true meaning of "let it go", maybe he can stay as he is now, with only gratitude and nostalgia for the past, without so many heavy emotions, and maybe he can even help as a counselor.

Don't ask, just ask because this song "Umbrella" gave him the courage.



After more than four minutes, the song ended.

The still-unfinished crowd suddenly felt that time passed too quickly, but on the stage below and on the big broadcast screen, Chika Suzu, who appeared in the spotlight, had already smiled and bowed.

After the final countdown of 10 seconds, a young foreign face appeared on the big screen. This young man introduced himself as 'President of Umbrella' and 'Head of the E-Sports Alliance' with a decent smile on his face and a sense of technology behind him.

With full background, he gave the opening remarks, introduced the competition process and rules in an easy-going and humorous manner, and then introduced the participating teams and players in the Japanese venues, announcing the official start of the opening ceremony.

From 9 a.m. to 11 a.m., in addition to relevant introductions and performances by famous Japanese artists, there are also some game-related character performances and interactions with some robots full of technology, which are so real that people can’t help but reach out.

Try the touch projection and time flies too.

Many people felt that not long after entering the venue, it was soon time to leave for lunch.

The doors and top windows were opened, and the sunlight poured into the venue again. People who left were not as quick as when they came in, slowed down, and discussed everything they saw and heard during the opening ceremony with their friends in twos and threes.

Haiyuan Ai tried to find the owner of the uneasy sight from the crowd walking out. She originally had no hope, but she didn't expect that a woman wearing sunglasses in the crowd gave her a mysterious and provocative smile.

, when he looked again, the other party had blended into the crowd and disappeared.

This glance was enough to make her feel heavy.

That smile is...Belmod.

That woman was really haunting, and it also made her worry about whether there would be other organizations sneaking into the park, whether there would be traps designed by some organizations, and whether there would be any bomb attacks.

"Xiao Ai?" Nanatsuki Yuesui noticed that Haibara Ai was staring at the backs of the crowd in a daze and called out in confusion.

"It's okay," Hui Yuan Ai came back to his senses and explained, "I just didn't expect so many people to pay attention to the game competition."

Chi Feichi had felt the gaze of the suspected troublemaker Belmod before. Although he didn't see anyone, he guessed the reason why Haiyuan Ai was distracted by staring at the crowd. He saw through it without saying anything, "There are more people than previously expected.

Probably because of the park’s technological buildings, it attracted some people who didn’t originally plan to come.”

"Yes," Haiyuan Ai nodded absently. Seeing Conan on the side, he hesitated for a moment, but still didn't say anything about seeing Belmode, "By the way, what are your plans next? Semifinals.

It only starts tomorrow, and I plan to go back to the players' rest area in the afternoon to see if the players' condition needs to be adjusted, and to prepare for tomorrow's game."

She told Edogawa about the matter, and Edogawa would definitely help check whether there were organized people nearby and whether the organization was taking any actions. But she suddenly wanted to take advantage of the tower being taller than other buildings, so that the team members could move around the park.

The privilege of free entry into some areas. Observe it yourself first. If an abnormality is found, ask Edogawa to be careful. If no abnormality is found, then the woman is probably just here to join in the fun. There is no need for Edogawa to think about how to take advantage of the opportunity to dig.

Organizational clues.

She didn't want anything to happen here, and she had a hunch that Bellmode might just come to see the opening ceremony and just want to linger around her brother.

Maybe it was to stimulate her, or maybe it was for other reasons, but no matter what, the woman seemed not to take action against them, at least for the time being. (To be continued)
